New English Commentary on Al-Aqida Al-Tahawiyya

Alhamdulillah, after many years of waiting this book is finally ready for a first print. I hope to have this printed some time next week Insha Allah. Kindly send in your comments and suggestions quickly. Please contact me should you require a hard copy.

Update: Contents page has been added.

Update: The book has been ‘printed’. Copies are available at R50 a copy (South Africa) and $10 international. If you require a copy please email Dar_al_Hikmah at Yahoo dot co dot uk.

Masha’Allah, may Allah (SWT) reward you in this world and the next (Ameen). Some minor suggestions:

It will be nice to have an index, headings and subheadings which can be browsed right from the front of the book. It is recommended to add references to some of the anecdotes which you have mentioned in you footnotes e.g. the story of Imam Abu Haneefa (RA), looking forward to it, Insha’Allah.

Shukran for your kind words and your most relevant comments. Having let the book lie so long on my computer (literally years) I decided to just ‘release’ it – electronically first – perhaps somebody will benefit. During this week I will be printing only a few copies (about 90) with a local printer within the small budget I have. I do realise that there will be a number of errors and suggestions that will be pointed out once the book is out there (already have received a few like yours) and hope to take this into consideration when the book is eventually ‘published.’ I also want to get one of the senior Ulama to write a Foreword if they approve of the contents.

Masha Allah good to know you have prepared a book on Aqida Tahawiyya. Al Hamdulillah, may Allah Subhana Ta’ala make it maqbool and popularly sought after. Being of the Ulama your insights must be keen and a pleasure to read.
Was Salaam, Yusuf ibn Aiyyoub
